Denim For Dollars

We Dress Down To Raise Others Up

Denim for Dollars is a fundraising effort led by staff members in which employees who choose to participate donate a minimum amount each City payday to wear jeans. Employees select one of three causes they would like to support — First Responders, Social Outreach or Animal Wellness. The funds are then donated to different organizations within our community.

Since 2015, Beach Municipal FCU and our members have donated more than $25,370.82 to our Denim For Dollars recipients.

During the previous quarter, our employees elected to send their contributions to the following organizations:

Virginia Beach Animal Care and Adoption Center

Our mission is accomplished by working with our citizens and other animal welfare organizations; by enforcing the domestic animals laws of our Commonwealth and our City, providing educational programs and humanely providing care, nourishment and a safe environment for the unwanted, stray, abused and abandoned animals in our City.

We will educate the public about responsible companion animal ownership, aggressively investigate animal cruelty cases, find homes for the homeless animals and humanely euthanize the unwanted animals in our community.

Samaritan House programs and services are guided by the empowerment theory and model of practice. We believe that all people have the capability of improving their own lives and we respect the right to self-determination by each person. We build upon an individual’s identified strengths, mobilize resources, and teach new skills that will directly improve the interactions between each person and the various systems they interact with in order to survive and thrive.

Violence is a complex social problem and not due to individual deficits. We maintain the empowerment perspective and believe that people are not victims of violence by choice.

Given adequate support, resources, and opportunities, people will choose violence-free lives for themselves and their children. We are dedicated to serving the community and offering hope, healing, and change to all those who seek out Samaritan House services.

Samaritan House offers housing, case management, counseling, victim advocacy, transportation, medical assistance, food pantry, group therapy, job training, and more to individuals and families experiencing domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking, or homelessness. All of our services are offered free from discrimination based on ethnicity, language, race, age, ability, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, family status, income, immigrant or refugee status, nationality, place of birth, and political or religious affiliation.
